Gann Grids
New 5.0 version will be released July 1 2009!
Please view the updated 5.0 users manual located at the bottom of this page!
From Robert Giordano:
As we have witnessed over the past several months our markets have been hit with not just extreme volatility but all sorts of unexpected news and unsettling rumors.
Do to this fact many people have been sitting on the sidelines just waiting for a chance to pounce on some extremely under valued opportunities ................
But when???
After doing a research project on the Dow Jones Averages for 2008's Fall addition of Traders World Magazine several extremely important periods and prices for 2009 leading into 2010 have been found. (view article section)
Each energy period and price found were found exclusively using the "New" and unique Gann Grids Ultra Basic and Advanced version's tools, settings and forecasting applications.
And due to these findings we at Pivot Point feel the volatility will continue into 2009 and possibly beyond.
Since we feel several un-presented opportunities will present themselves within the next 12-16 months this new GGU 5.0 version will hopefully give it's users an opportunity "to Strike While the Iron is Hot" rather then waiting until its to late....!!
This version also includes a "FREE" 1 on 1 training session lasting 1 full hour to help expedite the learning curve on the software's basic and advanced technical features. (By apointment only)
This way its users can potentially react to the upcoming volatility with technical intent rather then financial confusion.....So please act now !!!
IMPORTANT!
Please be advised that as of February 1 2009 "The Combined Views of the Masters forecasting series" is booked solid until early 2010.
Product Overview
In the early part of 1993 I became interested in becoming a technical research specialist and sought as much information as I could on the subject. I read as many books, courses and articles as I could find while at the same time testing dozens of technical forecasting systems. I however found most if not all fell short of my expectations in actual trading.
After an extensive investigation on the subject the names of W D Gann, R N Elliot, and George Bayer stood out among the rest as being the best of the best within the fascinating field of technical analysis and forecasting
.
What caught my attention about these 3 men were each had a larger then life Bio, along with an astonishing track record of forecasting market turns weeks if not months in advance… Documented!
However, the fact that Gann and Bayer used a kind of astronomy to generate their forecasts didn’t sit well with me at first, in fact to me at that time the whole subject was nothing more then superstition and mumbo jumbo rather then an actual science.
What I did eventually begin to see after 3 years of intense study was Gann spoke freely about many natural and interesting laws such as the laws of vibrations, the laws of geometrical angles, range divisions, time cycles, and natural time sequencing followed by an introduction to his master calculators. Gann also showed a unique understanding of astronomy and astrology as explained in several examples of planets having a direct relationship to price support and resistance levels along with other astronomical calculations.
It seemed to me that his understanding of astrology was more of a hard factual science that could be back tested and confirmed, rather then just chart interpretations of pending doom and gloom. His type of astrological forecasting was more of an astronomical method with straight forward rules rather then what would be given from most street corner astrologers both around at that time or even today …… I was intrigued!
George Bayer spoke of Hebrew letters, graphical ellipses on specially sized chart paper, large amounts of astronomical observations on what he felt were the keys to unlocking most markets price and time reversal periods, aspect timing using the planets and hot zodiac degrees locations, theory behind solar and lunar eclipses in forecasting and also something he called his 5 fold horoscope.
He also felt many ancient metaphysical texts where filled with hidden secrets of natural time cycles as explained in his various books and courses. He also stated this was the origin of his unique research and astronomical trading tool applications
R N Elliot believed his research on the natural coincidences of a special number cycle was consistent with not just the fluctuations of our universal markets but also tied directly into nature herself. He found that the Fibonacci sequence, the golden ratio, and the distinct number pattern found within his pyramid research were all around him all the time. He found the sacred sequences and numbers in natural plant growth patterns, sea shell spirals, vortex spirals, planet rotation cycles, sacred architectural geometry, musical note intonations and galactic progressions.
At first being some what of a skeptic I tested each and every tool in exactly the way instructed by each to do within their various works, and to my surprise I found many of the Astro tool applications did in fact work…. and at times work well!
I have termed this special astro technical timing,"Individual and natural energy date research".
Learn to put the technical odds in your favor first before placing a trade!
Hello
My name is Robert Giordano and my approach to trading is simple, it’s similar to that of a professional gambler as professionals understand trading must be understood just as the gambler knows his chosen game.
Though few believe anyone can actually earn a living from casino gaming I beg to differ as I personally know several who do. What I found after interviewing each was each had the uncanny ability to know just how and when to place bets which would drop the casino’s odds down to an almost even keel.
Each did this by mastering several single systems or ideologies found through trial and error research and applying each at the right time. These odds stacking systems gave them the much needed edge to stay alive and actually profit from over the years.
Profeshional traders are no different!...Professional traders are professionals because they know just how and when to stack the technical odds in their favor first before placing a trade. If you want to be sucessful at trading then you to must learn to stack the technical odds just as the professionals do or just like all other forms of gambling the casino will always win in the end.
The tools incorporated within the "New" Gann Grids Ultra Software where designed to do just this .....Give the user a potential odd stacking system!
By systematically applying each of the highly probable concepts on screen then systematically analyzing one by one can potentially unlock the odd stacking edge needed to stay alive!
Each tool within the software's programs were designed after many years of trial and error research and confirmed by many to be the best of the best within the masters extreamly specialized field of technical research and forecasting.
Every tool built into the Gann Grids Ultra software were also found throughout the works of WD Gann, George Bayer and RN Elliot's and confirmed to be some of the best and most percentage worthy single systems known at this time.
In my opinion when analyzed separately each tool can generate some extremely powerful results but the true forecasting power of the program truly comes alive when several are applied at the same time. This several tool approach tends to show many high probability periods in both price and time along with potentially showing unique placements for stop loss orders.
This single stop loss order technique is literally worth the price of the whole program when applied correctly!
What is Gann Grids Ultra?
Gann Grids Ultra Basic and Advanced versions are unique software package built and used by us at Pivot Point Research.
These unique and specialized research packages were developed to help research and test the highest percentage worthy forecasting applications learned within the legendary works of WD Gann, George Bayer and RN Elliot along with many others.
The primary goal of this software is to set up actual price and time forecasting models for most stocks, commodities and indexes along with finding unique sets of stop loss order placement locations.
With the new Gann Grids software package there will be no more hand drawing the applications read about within the various books and courses on the print version's charts. You can now view most of the highest precentage worthy systems one at a time or all at once on screen with just a simple click of a button!
For me It was only after I began to scale and re-scale the price and time charts using a prototype of the new "Gann Grids Print Programs" that I began to see the true value of their master overlays and indicators.
I also began to see that most stocks, commodities and indexes worked primarily off different price and time harmonic proportions that could only be found through this type of trial and error research. However every tool learned needed to be painstakingly drawn on the blank charts by hand and tested 1 by 1.This research just took too long on multiple research applications and projects to be usefull.
Though I did learn a great deal in hand drawing all the applications on the printed charts I however felt a new shortcut was needed. To me testing the key concepts which in my opinion held several of the secret ideas hidden within the planetary price channels so vaguely spoken of by WD Gann in his astro letters, the general concept behind the Elliot wave price/time periods, and the George Bayer astronomical chart patterns was my main priority.
I feel this goal has now been achieved in the new "Gann Grids Ultra Basic and Advanced forecasting series".
"Along with being some of the best theoretical forecasting applications on the market for the price, the two programs are now being considered a major contributing factor in helping isolate multiple price and time trend changes (Pivot Points) that may lay hidden within the harmonic charts as no other of its kind" ............( "Larry Jacobs "Traders World Magazine" )
The areas of study highlighted within the New "Gann Grids Ultra Program" are based on the sacred sciences of:
Natural number progressions
Fibonacci sequence
Golden spirals
Golden sections
Sacred geometry using Gann angles and squares
Sacred proportions using Gann angles and squares
Forecasting price cycles using natural squares
Forecasting future time cycles using natural squares
And sound, numbers, and vibrations in harmonic law
The astronomical, mathematical and astrological secrets hidden within the universal principals of mundane events include:
The basics of financial astronomy
The basics of financial Astrology
Energy date cluster research or mundane astro research
Planetary periodicity within our markets
Gann and Bayer's natural "time" research
Individual market timing using planetary fingerprint research
Individual market timing using planetary motion harmonics AND MORE !
The astro section of the Advanced version was specifically developed to isolate hot aspects and degrees of the zodiac present around most major, medium and minor trend change periods ( Astro finger prints). This is done by isolating key dates from past trend changes, dissected then analyzed one by one. Once the astro fininger prints are found they could then be projected forward up to 5 years into the future on screen with the simple click of a button for easy review !
I have included within the Gann Grids Ultra Advanced version all of the extremely user friendly mathematical tools within the basic version, plus several of what I consider the most consistent astro technical applications found within their unique astro research literature.
Please understand this program was built as a specialty tool to help expedite the technical requirements for the Pivot Point Research Inc proprietary forecasting system coming shortly (Course to follow ) along with being a wonderful program for outside research.
Though our system uniquely and systematically utilize each and every tool within the Gann Grids Basic and Advanced version not all of the masters applications are included at this time, only the ones personally tested and found to work best are.
This unique research of "Keeping the Best and Throwing Out the Rest" approach in my opinion has given me what I've been looking for so many years, a potential odds stacking system!
Also please understand that only Daily charts With Calendar dates can be viewed within the ultra programs functions. Daily charts with just trading day data cannot be viewed at this time.This weekend included setting was found to work best within the Pivot Point Research forecasting system however this may change in future upgrades to include both but not as of yet.
Important! Please be advised as most of the draw functions within the Ultra's applications can be done on screen then saved to your PC for future extraction, the Ultra versions print is limited to just full screen shots only. You Cannot print full grid screen as set up by the Print programs output.
2 ACTUAL FORCASTING EXAMPLES USING THE TOOLS AND TECHNIQUES OF THE 3 MASTERS
This is an overview of a research project done on July 8th 2008 and sent via Email on July 10 2008 for the stock Disney (Symbol DIS). It was sent to a good friend and in my opinion a master astro research specialist in his own right….Mitch Lewis. Mitch Lewis is also the editor of a very insightful monthly news letter called "Living by starlight" For more information on Mr Lewis go to: www.mitchastro.com
Please follow the dates and reasoning behind a mini forecast done by us at Pivot Point research Inc on 7/10/2008………
Hey Mitch
Ok, got some good stuff
According to the astro and non astro research the HOT dates for the upcoming months are:
7/18-22
8/6-15 ..Very important!
9/21-24
10/13-19 also very important
Multiple energy dates are culminating within them, both mundane and unique to Disney's price and time fluctuations!
I found Gio, xxx/Venus, xxx/Venus, and xxx/Uranus when combined along with
Helio, xxx/Mercury/Pluto aspecting around the same day (+ or - 2 days ) was about 70% accurate in the past 30 years for forecasting main weekly and monthly swings.
We also have a 24 week cycle with a +/- 2 variance also working at about 70% starting at its main top in May 2000
Using Gann's cycle year research we see Aug and Oct to be critical months for its trend change as well
Using the upcoming eclipse at 9 Leo 32, several of the above dates have several planets hitting to its location with aspects.
I also found in my personal research that by adding or subtracting natural and harmonic squares to the equation gave a very special research technique for isolating support or resistance levels........My personal contribution to this field is that they can only be found using my programs functions...
Check out the dates using the natal chart........ My research only uses the dates of the highs and lows and not natal data......
This was just a quick research project and has not included all the tools at my disposal.......

Please understand that the above research is not intended in any way to be viewed as trading advice and past performance does not guarantee future results…!!!!
Since Time is the most important factor in determining market movements and by studying past records of the averages or individual stocks you will be able to prove to your self that history does repeat and that by knowing the past you can tell the future ...........................W D Gann
GANN'S TIME CYCLE YEARS
WD Ganns master time cycle years are a special number of years starting from the specific year being forecast and running backwards in time 60, 50, 40, 30, 20, 15, 14, 10, 7, 5, 3, and 1, with the 60 year cycle being the most important for cycle repetition according to his findings. This research was done specifically to find what yearly cycle may be repeating in the near future as Gann felt everything in nature repeats. He however felt these specific years held special clues to the individual future time swings on the stock, commodity or index being researched. This if you know the past you will know what will happen in the future theory was the basis for many of his unique and profitable trading forecasts.
Master cycle year comparison
By going over every month within each year of Gann’s master cycle periods and noting the months a major medium or minor top and bottoms were reached, you will get a better understanding of the months within the coming year that are most important for a change in trend.
Gann’s 1939 example
In order to determine how 1939 will run for the balance of the year, we make the following comparison ……….. WD Gann
“The above months marked with an H are the ones to watch for important changes in trend and for tops and bottoms during the rest of 1939. Therefore should the averages start to advance after Sept. watch for tops in Oct. or Nov. according to the past cycles”……. WD Gann
In an article written be me in late Aug. of 2002 and featured in trader's world magazine fall issue titled The Balancing of a Forecast I used this same formula to determine the months in the upcoming year for the major reversal periods on the stock General Electric. It went as follows:
Using the stock General Electric (symbol GE) as our forecasting example, we see some interesting results when properly combined and balanced with the unique key indicators shown above. As we shall see, each single chart is only a small piece to a much larger forecasting system, shown in the following examples.
KEY#1 Ganns cycle years...Monthly trend change periods for 2002 and 2003. From this general information we see for the year 2002 the monthly high probability trend change periods are from the 3rd- 5th month, and 7th-10th month.
From this general information we see for the year 2003 the monthly high probability trend change periods are from:
The 1st-3rd month, 5th month and the 7th-8th month.
When using the monthly time balancing charts we see the average MINOR top to top time cycle periods to be 3-5 months and the MAJOR time cycle periods to be 8-10 months.
On the bottom to bottom time cycle counts we find the average MINOR cycle periods to be 2 months, 4 months, 6 months, and 10-13 months for the MAJOR periods.From the low in Sept. /01 to the low in July /02 was 10 months from the low in Jan. /02 to the low in July. /02 was 6 months from the top in March. /02 to the top in Aug. /02 was 5 months and from the top in Nov. /01 to the top in Aug. /02 was 9 months.
According to the above information the balancing of the next major GE cycle period from the monthly, weekly, Fibonacci. #, and astro data clusters are all coming together in Jan - Feb of 2003.
The astro dates for each month are Jan. 2-3, 9th, and 18-22.
For Feb. they are *4-5th, 12-13, and 24th.
The actual trend change date was Feb.13 2003!
Monthly chart of GE for 2003
Weekly chart of GE for 2003
Daily chart of GE for 2003
We could now see the forecast result were exact to the day on Feb 13 and very close to the rest of the high probability periods mentioned.
This can be viewed on the above monthly, weekly and daily charts.

The above chart is the format for the astro fingerprint tool What this tool does is take a series of dates by left clicking on the daily chart (usually dates from major and medium high and lows going back 5, 10, 20 or more years) it then breaks each date down into astro aspects and planetary combinations then groups them together for research.
Finding the highest number of specific planetary combinations around most tops and bottoms is the goal of this tool It works in Heliocentric and Geocentric settings
You can see on the right a series of combinations along with the number of times it was present around each date …in this case 11 dates were selected
Aspect highlight tool
Once a series of high probability aspects/combinations are found with tool #1 then tool #2 takes over
Example
Say the aspects of mars /Saturn was found to be persistent in many of the high and low dates in tool #1, In tool # 2 you can scan a user set time frame looking for the dates in the future that the special planetary combination are due.
Each date can then be highlighted on the daily chart in the color of your choice.
The ephemeris tool... Geocentric
With this tool you can look for the dates of planetary retrograde periods, direct periods, eclipse hot degrees, zero north declination, zero south declination, max north and max south declination, planets ingress into new signs, scroll through multiple months to find the dates planets cross over HOT degrees found with the zodiac hot spot tool, and much more
The ephemeris tool... Heliocentric
Right ascension in hours and minutes
Right ascension in zodiac locations/degrees
The ephemeris tool... Declination
Planet transit tool
This next tool will take the location of any planet on any date and find a user defined aspect degree within a user set time period This example shows the sun starting on 3/20/2006 -4/20/2007 and finding the dates it reaches all 30 degree aspects to itself.
The dates can then be highlighted to the daily chart
Zodiac degree research tool
This tool will take any zodiac location, say the location of an eclipse, retro or direct degree, special zodiac degrees of asteroids, fixed stars, George Bayer’s mirror points and others to find the dates each planet will make a user defined aspect to it in a user set time period.
This example shows the zodiac location of 24 degrees Aries and finding the dates each planet makes all 15 degree aspects to it from 1/20/07-4/20/07.
They can also be highlighted to the charts.
Zodiac hot spot tool
This tool also takes the dates of all user selected highs and lows from the charts by left clicking on them. Then take those dates and places each planet from each date on a special zodiac overview type window. Then gives a total /tally of the hottest degrees
You can then look in the ephemeris tool for the future dates planets cross over those degrees
Planet price conversion tool
This next tool will plot the zodiac location of any planet and convert it into a price then it can be overlaid over a price bar chart.
This example is mercury from 1/20/07-12/20/07 with a price scale set to .25 and a square of 6.
The distance or separations of each series of lines are user set by the price scale and the Square being used.
In other words if we were to set the charts price scale to $1 it will be a separation of 6 grids per series. If it was set at .50 it would be 12 grids and at .25 it would be at 24 spaces per series of lines.
This tool also allows the user to plot and chart as an overlay all planetary combinations such as the mean of 5 planets, mean of 8 planets, or just 2 planets the choice is yours.
